@PretzelsPeace
I haven't had a physical anxiety response in years, this is so bad.
I hate the uncontrollable shakes, like I'm some chihuahua.
How do you also explain that properly to your new job?
"Oh this? Yeah it happens. Surprise! I mean, you knew about me being super nervous in the interview. Don't worry, it'll get less as time goes on."
Like, what?
If you see that my bio is messed up a bit, no you didn't.
I try to edit it on my phone, and it decides to be weird
All because I remembered that I should probably make my claim of being part of the SCV fandom early on
Now my eyes hurt, but at least my bio looks readable again
Screw this, I'm going to my computer to fix it
I was so nervous, and I honestly thought I was making a mistake, cutting my hair this short, but omg, I have no regrets, I feel so pretty!
I figured out a way to have the important scenes between Rusty and Charlie, while also finding a way to include Carrie better, and also!
Now, Rusty will not be coming out to his sister over facetime
It worked for the last three years, but I like the idea of Carrie being able to give her brother a big hug immediately, and not having to wait.
You know, I worry that a bixie cut won't suit me, but on the other hand, 1. Can't say it doesn't until I try it, and 2. It's just hair! While hair is held to a high level of importance for me, I also recognize that it's just hair. It grows
See, this is why I need to cut my hair soon.
My hair slipped from my shoulder, to my chest, and I thought a creature sat down on me
I'm starting the process of re-writing some of my older writing, to flesh out the characters better, and also link it to the rest of the universe.
Call it the PretzelsPeace literary universe for now, because I don't know what to call it.
Okay, I could do something really funny here.
A side character that says absolutely nothing, shares the same name as a child actor in IFCT, if I maybe hinted at the two being the same person?
Y'all remember Beth? I ended up giving her and Lolo the same surname. And they happen to both be British.
Not related in any way, but a weird coincidence
Which does mean that I have to re establish everything, but it means that it's all going to be better!
Deleted my Sally face fanfic from my drafts, because it was giving me second hand embarrassment and I couldn't bring myself to even read it.
Trust me, from what I remembered, it was absolute trash, and I'm a much better writer than I was 6 years ago
Will you guys see my writing that's more recent?
Maybe one day
Was looking into public domain translations of Homer's Iliad, and came to the conclusion that Samuel Butler's translation is probably the best.
To then learn that I HAVE IT ALREADY
Why am I doing this?
I'm contemplating changing the movie in the book to something I already know plenty about, and the epic is already in the public domain(Because it was composed centuries ago), but in order to write something based on it, the translation has to also be in the public domain.
Granted, Butler's translation uses Victorian prose, roman names, and is often clunky, but I'm like, the last person who needs to worry about it.
OMG
My sister just came around the corner, wearing her graduation cap, and I audibly started crying
